Here’s your chance!
One of our lovely colleagues on the Arcan-l listserv suggested that we need “a fabulous YouTube video showing archivists and librarians doing high risk activities. Skydiving, train hopping, parkour, taking books out of the library, writing something at home with the blinds drawn, entering a university lecture hall – the sky’s the limit! All the while with that wonderful all-purpose Canadian tool, duct tape, plastered on our faces.”
Sooo…go ahead and start staging some “high risk” photo and video shoots to add to the video! We’ll all be done with assignments soon enough, and what better way celebrate than by contributing to a fun little project that shows solidarity and support to our colleagues in Ottawa and around the country! Send your photos and videos clips to cgshriver at gmail dot com. If your submission is too large to send, just shoot me an email, and I will invite you to a Dropbox. The deadline is April 15.
Thanks so much…and stay risky!
